Needed shoes to fit with our kiddos new AFO’s and tried many without success. Finally found these! Extra width and removable cushioned foot pad is perfect to allow room for the braces. Highly recommend!

My daughter loves the fit and style but the shoes started falling apart after only one month. And not just in spot – seams are coming undone, the toe part, etc. Really disappointing for the money.

I bought these shoes for my 7 year old granddaughter for part of her birthday present. The first pair I bought her was too big. The ease to exchange them was admirable. The second pair fit her perfect. She loved the style and comfort. We were able to find a variety of wide width in many sizes. Prices were reasonable and shipping was free.

My Daughter loves these shoes! They seem true to size, comfortable fit, easy off and on. They look more like big kid shoes but still have great color accents. So far they seem like good quality and she like the breathability of the material.

This is an excellent fitting shoe that’s great for wide feet. It has a lot of cushion and in the words of my 9 soon to be 10 year old daughter “it’s very springy and fast! She seems to run and jump very well in these…she has one pair for daily use and another for gym!

These were for my granddaughter who has wide feel. These wide shoes sit her great and she refused to take them off until bedtime!

They look very nice and stylish. My daughter loves them and wouldn’t stop running around the house to show me how fast they make her.

While my child has not had a chance to wear the shoes beyond trying them on, the fit and comfort seem to be perfect.

I ordered extra wide due to my daughter leg and ankle swelling. The shoe bed fit well but the strap was too tight, plus the back of the shoe rises up too far and dug into the back of her ankle. It might have worked out if they were a lower rise shoe.
I'd also recommend:
Sketchers for low rise slip on shoe.

These fit my daughter‘s wide feet beautifully and she loved them. The Velcro gave up after only a couple months of wear. We were unable to fix it so we had to donate them and buy completely new shoes. Very disappointing and not up to par with New Balance’s usual quality

My daughter wore these for school. I assume children’s shoes will last until they need to go up a size. These didn’t make it 4 months before the Velcro gave out. Very cute and comfy but I’m back to buy another pair already.

The velcro on one shoe is ripping apart after 3 months. I wish shoe companies had a better solution for this. It seems to happen a lot on kid sneakers. Otherwise they are holding up pretty well.

My daughter wears a Little Kid size 1 in Bogs and Tsukihoshi shoes, but a size 1 in these was really small and narrow. As a physical therapist, I was disappointed in the narrow toe box - not great for growing feet.
I'd also recommend:
Tsukihoshi, Bogs, Keen, Merrell

True to size. My only complaint is the velcro. It does not stay put. I would not buy again.

Shoe fit fine, but after just 2 weeks the strap will not hold on anymore with very little wear.

Rejected by 6 year old daughter as overall felt too rigid around the toebox. Shame because it is a very pretty style

At first these shoes were great. But after only a few weeks of wear the Velcro isn’t sticking anymore which is a crucial feature. Shoes look new, but they had to be replaced.
